SÃO RAFAEL ATLÂNTICO

Description

A spa with almost two thousand square metres merely two steps away from one of the best beaches of Southern Portugal is reason enough to make anyone's mouth water. Just imagine this added to spacious rooms with airy views, restaurants with a sea view or Mediterranean cuisine facing the ocean, extensive gardens, large-scale swimming pools... This would be the one and only São Rafael Atlântico. A NAU Hotels & Resorts unit by São Rafael beach, only 5 minutes away from Albufeira. An excellent hotel for couples, to live their romance, whether a honeymoon or romantic getaway. Space, light, comfort, view, peace. Nouns which are highlighted when mentioning rooms, hotel rooms, where one should go to in order to receive all that. The rooms of São Rafael Atlântico meet all these requirements, whether facing the sea or garden. All are equipped with air conditioning, telephone, hair drier, safe, LCD television with satellite channels, mini-bar, kettle and access to the internet, all have this light that ignites everything, with this space that allows you to breathe, with all that comfort that might be sought, with a view that you will never want to switch off, with a peace that invades body and soul. Dinner with the light of the end of the day and Mediterranean flavours, among olive and palm trees, is appealing. However, it becomes even more so when adding the panoramic view over the blue of the Atlantic. At the Al Fresco Restaurant this is the proposal. Indecently tempting. But the proposals of Chef Vítor Monteiro at São Rafael Atlântico all year round are no less tempting. From the Seven Seas restaurant, in buffet regime, with a view over the swimming pools, to the Mediterranean à la carte, and the Arabian Sea and Caspian Sea bars, there are plenty of reasons to go, enjoy and repeat. There are those who travel to the Algarve, to Albufeira and to São Rafael Atlântico just to dive deep into the Atlântico Spa. Covering 1800 square metres, this is reason enough to travel kilometres. This is one of the great attributes of this NAU Hotel, to where people go when wishing to escape... break with routing, embrace peace, look within, navigate in calm waters, relax. All this can be done without even leaving the heated hydromassage pool of 4x9m. Among the different types of jet with various functions, well spent moments are guaranteed. The SPA circuit with a floatation tank, counter-current, cascade and sequential jets is completed with a jacuzzi, sauna, Turkish bath, cold water bucket shower and contrast shower. For those who cannot dispense with activity, a few strokes in the leisure pool are suggested, also heated, of 15x6m, or a full workout in the totally equipped and large gym. With the high quality products by Comfort Zone and refined technique of the therapists, the well-being of the body and soul is completed in one of the nine treatment rooms. A complete range of massages and moist and dry therapies to cure any physical or “chemical” ailment. To be done by the two, preferably, and to return as many times as possible.

GOLF COURSES PRESENTATION

SALGADOS

A course for those who prefer Nature, for Nature lovers, for those who respect her and wish to share unique and magic moments with her. Salgados Golf Course is located at Herdade dos Salgados, close to Albufeira. Next to Salgados Beach and Salgados Lagoon Nature Reserve, linking the dunes to the sea, Humanity to the Universe. A shelter for various bird species, some under threat of extinction, this course offers golfers a unique experience with impressive views over the ocean and unique birdsong. We recommend walking over the green, as it is simple, beautiful and almost always flat. This is a very technical course, more cerebral than physical. Due to the wind, its changes, this course is never the same. Here, almost all the holes are flanked by lagoons and one (number 6) is considered one of the most difficult of the world, as it has a lot of water and is very long. Holes 7, 8 and 15 are among the loveliest of the course (and region!). For golf enthusiasts, playing in the yellow tees is a delightful experience.

MORGADO

Surrounded by Nature, farming fields, in the typical of the Algarvian Barrocal, ensconced between the hilly interior and the coast, graced with partridges and rabbits, is Morgado golf course. Between Portimão and Monchique, in one of the beautiful and largely unknown valleys of the Algarvian hinterland, this course is a challenge both for those taking their first steps in golf as for more experienced players seeking to test or improve their technique. With 18 holes, this is a more open and easier course, with the features of a links course - with flat fairways and bunkers of Scottish inspiration - but, instead of being along the seaside as the traditional links, it's placed inside parkland. The card presents a par of 73 strokes, although the length of the round is attenuated by the generous width of the fairways. However, the less accomplished strokes can be penalised by any one of the many bunkers distributed over the course. Surrounded by traditional species of trees of the region, such as citrus and olive trees, at Morgado the player is immersed in a calm and serene Algarve, meeting the inner soul of this region that has so much to offer.

ÁLAMOS

This is an impressive golf test. Although the length of the round is relatively short, Álamos Golf Course is a constant challenge. With 18 holes, this is a fairly technical but narrow course, with greens that are smaller and very elaborate, undulating. With superb views towards the hills of Serra de Monchique, lakes and farmland, this course produces relaxation and peacefulness. While a shorter course than Morgado Golf Course (Par 71), it has all the necessary features to meet the expectations of the most demanding player. More than just a golf test, this course embodies the harmony that can be achieved between humanity and nature.
